    So, I took WoW much less seriously than most back when I played it, so I was often joking around with people in my group or guild or whatever. One particularly good trick I used was something like this.

    [1. General] [Arkthemaniac] : So I would say something and then I would have it aligned so that once it hit the far side of the screen . . .
    [1. General] [Unsuspectingvictim] : . . . it would appear as though someone else was saying something.

    This is a great trick, and it will drive people insane if they aren't familiar. This is one that I did in the Wailing Caverns:

    [Party] [Arkenkiad] : So where's this next boss? (all this would be tabs and spaces until I hit the next line)
    [Party] Sometauren] : I like to play boner baseball.

    The guy FREAKED OUT. He had no idea what was going on. He thought someone was hacking him!

    If you were previously unaware oif this little trick, I recommend you try it out. You just have to make sure that you know exactly how many spaces you need. Otherwise you'll look like a moron and a jackass. Take care.

    I did that too! That is always good for a kick. Here is another one, for Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare-

    1. Play a Hardcore mode, Hardcore Team Deathmatch is preferable.

    2. When the map is loading, tell your team that you want to show them a really cool glitch but you need help getting there.

    3. Find a corner of a building and tell people to follow you there. Get as many people to "help you get up there" as you can, until they are gathered around you in a corner.

    4. Pull a grenade pin and hold

    5. ???

    6. Profit.

    I don't see why that would be a joke,  I mean you have to pay for MMO's and in return the developers are constantly pumping new content into the game...so you are pretty much paying for content, and that is what you do anyways.

    Kind of an old trick that works in most chat systems. Always good for a laugh.
